[VHFcontesting] IC 9100 on 1296

[WM3M]

Buddy,
I have the IC-9100 with 1296 and I use the Icom AG-1200.  It is not the best 
pre amp but it does help on receive, plus it is powered via the coax from 
the 9100.  I do not have much success with 1296, I have lots of trees and a 
low QTH, so don’t make many contacts.  Plus at your power levels the AG-1200 
would not work in line.
Good luck  73

I bought one of the first IC 9100 and have had the 1296 module since day 
one. I have used a SSB Electronic 100W PA, that actually put out ~70W. This 
week, I upgraded to a BEKO HLV 350, 300~400 watts. I think I am hearing OK. 
But, I have no intention of being an Alligator. I am now wondering if I need 
a preamp for the IC9100? Anyone have any experience with a preamp on an IC 
9100?
